There are more seniors that struggle with substance abuse than you would think, and it is never too late for anyone in Yates Center to get help for addiction so that they can live the remainder of their lives with a higher quality of life and be as mentally and physically stable as possible. The most prevalent substance abuse occurrences among seniors are alcoholism and prescription drug addiction. In many instances, both are an issue where seniors are abusing both alcohol and prescription medications simultaneously, a treacherous combination. When combined with the reality that seniors often struggle with other physical and psychological health conditions that must be handled at the same time, it is suggested that any senior looking for help look for a program that offers treatment for dual diagnosis/co-occurring disorders.
Programs which specialize in addiction treatment for seniors have staff qualified to provide addiction treatment and general geriatric health services, including psychiatric services. Treatment will be more effective in a residential treatment center, and a medically safe detoxification from alcohol and any prescription medications that the senior has become dependent to but needs to be weaned off of will be the very first step. A thorough evaluation of both physical and psychological health conditions will be conducted so that any issues can be addressed concurrently, because these issues are commonly the driving force of the addiction to begin with. A complete recovery plan will be put into action that will target the specific and personal needs of the senior.
